The Philadelphia Eagles' front office ought to address the Jalen Hurts situation publicly, preferably at a press conference.The leaks, PR-approved statements, and secondhand medical analysis aren't helping. If anything, each new development raises further questions about whether medical malpractice occurred.Here's what we know.Hurts was reportedly cleated in his left calf against the Rams on October 4. He first sought treatment on October 8. An ultrasound in London on October 10 revealed a superficial blood clot. Doctors cleared him to play against Jacksonville in London on October 11. Hurts then participated fully in practice on October 14, preparing for the Eagles' game against the Panthers on Sunday.That evening, a follow-up ultrasound revealed movement in the blood clot.On October 15, the Eagles released a statement announcing that Hurts would miss the Panthers game while doctors determined the appropriate course of treatment. The team emphasized that his health and safety were its highest priority but provided no timetable for his return.On Saturday morning, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the Eagles did not plan to place Hurts on injured reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games. The reporting suggested that Philadelphia believed Hurts could return to the field within a month.Later that day, Schefter reported that the Eagles had reversed course and placed Hurts on injured reserve.JALEN HURTS TO REPORTEDLY MISS REMAINDER OF NFL SEASON AFTER BLOOD CLOTS FOUND IN QUARTERBACK'S LUNGSLater that day, Schefter reported that the Eagles had reversed course and placed Hurts on injured reserve.On Monday, The Ringer's Tom Pelissero reported that Hurts was expected to miss the remainder of the season after further medical evaluations revealed a more serious condition.In a joint statement, the Eagles and Hurts' agent, Nicole Lynn, confirmed that he had been diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli, meaning blood clots in both lungs."Hurts is now on blood thinners and should have no long-term effects," according to the medical prognosis outlined in the statement.In a follow-up report, Pelissero said doctors instructed Hurts not to sleep after discovering the blood clot in London as a precaution. According to the report, Hurts had been awake for roughly 36 hours when he started against the Jaguars.Hours later, amid growing scrutiny from members of the media, Lynn offered a "clarification."Lynn told Pelissero, "Hurts was up until early Sunday morning getting evaluated at a hospital, he was able to sleep upon rejoining the team and the Eagles set aside a room for him at the stadium."John Clark offered a different timeline, reporting Monday that blood clots were discovered in Hurts' lungs on Friday, a day before ESPN reported that the Eagles had no plans to place him on injured reserve.So, what are we to make of all this?At this point, it's difficult to say. The reporting is conflicting, the timeline keeps changing, and each attempt at clarification seems to introduce another layer of uncertainty.Only a small number of people know precisely what happened, including when doctors discovered the clots and whether the Eagles allowed Hurts to play in London after going 36 hours without sleep.Unfortunately, the lack of clarity has made the public discourse worse.Former NFL player Michael Robinson suggested that Hurts was faking the blood clot to avoid playing for a losing team. Meanwhile, doctors analyzing the situation from afar have debated on social media how Hurts' condition should have been treated, often disagreeing with one another.The Eagles owe it to Hurts, their fans, and the integrity of the organization to address these questions directly, in front of reporters.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW!The handling of Hurts' condition is a serious matter. The reports have raised legitimate questions about whether medical malpractice occurred and whether the Eagles prioritized winning a regular-season game over the health of their franchise quarterback.Those are serious allegations, not established facts. If the Eagles followed appropriate medical protocols and did not expose Hurts to unnecessary risks, they should explain the decisions that led to his clearance and provide the public with a coherent timeline.Doing so would not require disclosing every detail of Hurts' private medical history. It would require accountability and a willingness to answer difficult questions.At this juncture, one thing is clear: the leaks, conflicting reports, and carefully crafted statements have done little to resolve the uncertainty. It has only fueled speculation.That doesn't help Hurts. It doesn't help the Eagles. And it certainly doesn't help the public understand what actually happened.
Just when it seems ex-NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown can’t surprise you anymore, he enters a new side quest – even as he faces an attempted murder charge.Brown has been booked to make his "comedy debut" at the New England Comedy Club in Cambridge, Massachusetts , on Dec. 18. The website promoting the event said that Brown will perform as well as do meet-and-greet opportunities with fans.Tickets are on sale now for $77.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGEMeanwhile, Brown was expected to plead no contest to aggravated assault as part of a deal to avoid jail time, but his court date was postponed. He accepted "an offer he couldn’t refuse" from Miami-Dade County prosecutors after facing a second-degree murder charge and a possible 30-year prison sentence.His attorney, Mark Eiglarsh, said in a statement last month that the plea deal offered by prosecutors will "dramatically reduce the criminal charge against him and result in probation rather than a prison sentence."The charges stemmed from a shooting on May 16, 2025, outside a celebrity boxing event in the Little Haiti neighborhood of Miami.Now, there’s nothing remotely funny about the charges Brown faces, as well as the ones he has dealt with since his final NFL day in 2022. However, if Brown is will be self-deprecating with his comedy routine, we can start at that final day.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW!Brown’s last time on an NFL field was out of a comedy sketch, except he really took off his Tampa Bay Buccaneers jersey and pads midway through a game and ran off the field before halftime. He threw up peace signs to the crowd, and it was clear that even he knew at the time it would be his last moment in the league.Tom Brady was the Buccaneers’ quarterback during that 2022 season, where both he and Brown were coming off a Super Bowl victory in their first season in Tampa. Brown caught a touchdown pass in that 31-9 rout of the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LV.Brown and Brady played together with the New England Patriots , too, after the former was released from the Las Vegas Raiders . However, Brown would get released amid a sexual assault investigation, ending his Patriots career with just one game played.Since his days in the league, Brown has been a tabloid content machine. For one, he mocked Kamala Harris and her 2024 presidential campaign running mate Tim Walz during one of President Donald Trump’s rallies in Pennsylvania. Then, he started to openly criticize and mock Trump on his social media.And that’s just for starters.From harassing Brady over his divorce from Gisele Bündchen on social media to trying to be a rapper and much more, Brown’s post-football life has been one filled with public outbursts and controversial statements and stunts.But this was a player that was arguably the best at his position midway through his career, collecting seven Pro Bowls and leading the league in receiving twice during his time with the Pittsburgh Steelers.Even then, Brown was causing headaches for his coaches and teammates, whether it be going on Facebook Live in the locker room after beating the Chiefs in the 2017 Divisional Round, or going 100 mph on a 45-mph road hours before a "Thursday Night Football" game.So, yes, there is loads of comedic material to work with here, though much of it is quite serious including the legal situation he’s going through now.SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTER
If you're looking for answers as to why a Portland, Oregon high school football player lit up an opponent who carried an American flag onto the field this past Friday night, you're out of luck.OutKick's attempt to get answers from Jefferson High School, where the player attends, were left unanswered on Monday. An attempt to reach Jefferson Athletic Director Donnie Siel Monday afternoon by phone went unanswered, as did an attempt to reach Jefferson principal Drake Shelton. A message left for his office was not returned.The Oregon School Activities Association (OSAA), the state school athletic governing body, told OutKick in a statement that it "is aware of the pre-game incident" and noted that the player was ejected and didn't play in the game. "Rivalry game or not, there’s no place for this behavior before, during, or after an interscholastic contest," the OSAA added.HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL REFEREE SUSPENDED FOR GRABBING A PLAYER AND ACTING LIKE A BUFFOONThe remaining question that many have is: Was a Grant High School football player targeted because he carried an American flag onto the field before a game against the Jefferson Democrats?FLORIDA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAME ERUPTS INTO VIOLENT BRAWL INVOLVING PLAYERS, COACHES AFTER FINAL WHISTLEWith the school not talking and the football team's Instagram page now deleted, it's not a question that's easily answered.

"However, there was disrespect shown toward Jefferson by Grant players and members of their coaching staff before the game, and if you were there to witness what happened, you would understand the full context."There was an option to go around the field, but they chose not to. This was our last game ever on Jefferson Field, our Senior Night, and Homecoming. This was a special and emotional night for our school, our seniors, our players, and our community.

Former Biden White House aide and Democratic strategist Yemisi Egbewole predicted that the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) would be sidelined ahead of the 2028 presidential election during a Wednesday episode of "The Fifth Column" podcast, hosted by Kmele Foster and Michael Moynihan, despite the socialist movement's recent primary victories.When asked by Foster whether the Democratic Party was moving toward the DSA's ideology, Egbewole, a senior fellow at the centrist Democratic think tank Third Way, predicted the movement would struggle to translate its recent successes into national influence."Going into 2028, the DSA... Baby gets put in a corner," Egbewole said.CARVILLE WARNS DEMOCRATS MAY NEED TO BLOCK FAR-LEFT CANDIDATES FROM JOINING CAUCUS, MODERATE GROUP DISAGREESEgbewole acknowledged that socialist-backed candidates had performed well in recent Democratic primaries but questioned whether those victories reflected broader support for the movement among voters nationwide."Anybody running to represent America is not going to seek anybody who's a part of the DSA," Egbewole added.Republicans rejected the suggestion that Democrats could distance themselves from socialism ahead of the next presidential election. RNC national press secretary Natalie Baldassarre criticized the party's ideological direction in a statement to Fox News Digital."It's too late for Democrats to rewrite their socialist brand," she said. "They've embraced socialism with open arms, and every 2028 Democrat contender is a tax-hiking, open border radical who will eagerly bend over for the far-left base."RAHM EMANUEL WARNS ‘BERNIE BROS’ COULD SINK DEMOCRATS BY SADDLING MODERATES WITH SOCIALIST AGENDACurtis Houck, managing editor of media watchdog NewsBusters, was also skeptical of Egbewole's claim."The train seems to have left the station," he told Fox News Digital. "The liberal, elitist media are deathly terrified of their base voters. The red-green alliance is a tidal wave the press sure don't seem interested in litigating. They will either downplay the aims of DSA, or ignore them. Neither seems to be a winning strategy."Egbewole's comments followed a series of primary victories by candidates aligned with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. In June, three Mamdani-backed candidates swept Democratic congressional primaries in New York, with Brad Lander and Darializa Avila Chevalier unseating Reps. Dan Goldman and Adriano Espaillat, respectively, and Claire Valdez winning an open-seat contest.During the podcast appearance, Egbewole downplayed the ideological significance of those victories, arguing that defeating established Democrats did not necessarily amount to defeating moderates.RAHM EMANUEL CHALLENGES DSA’S INFLUENCE ON DEMOCRATS, WARNS GOP ‘WING’ IS DISAPPEARING"I'm okay with admitting they did well," she said. "They won their races. They didn't really defeat moderates . . . Dan Goldman wasn't a moderate."Egbewole's own organization, Third Way, works to limit socialist influence within the Democratic Party. The centrist organization had launched a $15 million campaign targeting the DSA through 2028, including opposition research, polling and outreach to Democratic leaders.Third Way co-founder Matt Bennett previously explained why the organization considered the socialist movement a threat to the party's electoral prospects."We believe the DSA poses a serious threat to Democrats," Third Way co-founder Matt Bennett said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "Their ideas are dangerous, and their politics are toxic. If we are to beat MAGA Republicans, we cannot allow our party to be defined by radicals."The ideological battle also extended into Michigan, where progressive Abdul El-Sayed defeated moderate Rep. Haley Stevens in August's Democratic primary. Egbewole suggested that even a victory by a DSA-adjacent candidate would not necessarily establish the movement's broader electoral strength."I say if it's anything less than like five points, then it doesn't count," Egbewole said.The divide has also reached prominent Democrats considering their political futures. California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a potential 2028 presidential contender, said in September that Democrats were "pretty aligned" with the DSA on several policy priorities, including universal healthcare and climate change.CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREMeanwhile, Mamdani faced pressure from socialist allies over his governing decisions. The mayor said Thursday he had no plans to fire NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch despite calls from the Democratic Socialists of America's New York City chapter for her removal following an ICE-involved shooting in the Bronx.The DSA previously defended its growing political influence after Third Way announced its campaign against the organization. DSA co-chair Megan Romer said in an August statement to Fox News Digital that the group intended to continue organizing despite the opposition."We believe in people power, and our vision for a better future is winning. We will keep building our movement, and they will waste their money," Romer said.
One of New York City's most storied hotels is shutting its doors for years, leaving brides and grooms scrambling to secure new wedding venues.For over a century, The Plaza Hotel in Manhattan has stood as the ultimate crown jewel of luxury weddings, setting the stage for extravagant celebrations — most notably the star-studded 2000 nuptials of Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones and a glamorous gathering back in 1968 for Julie Nixon and David Eisenhower.The Fifth Avenue landmark is also deeply woven into the fabric of popular culture. It has served as the backdrop for blockbuster films like "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York" and "Bride Wars." LUXURY HOTEL FAVORED BY KENNEDYS, GRACE KELLY CRACKS DOWN ON INFLUENCER PHOTO SHOOTSIt was also the beloved stomping ground of Eloise from Kay Thompson's classic children’s books.The Plaza Hotel will close in January 2027 for at least four years as the landmark undergoes extensive restoration work, the hotel said in a press release shared with Fox News Digital.The hotel, which opened in 1907 overlooking Central Park, said the work will focus on repairing and restoring its historic façade."Due to the complexity of this undertaking and significant intrusion to operations, The Plaza Hotel will be closing for at least four years commencing January 2027 while the work is underway," the hotel said.The announced closure is creating uncertainty for couples who had planned to marry at the hotel.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTERSeveral brides with upcoming weddings said they were left scrambling for alternate venues after learning of the closure, according to the New York Post.Christine Carney, 38, had planned a roughly 200-person wedding at the Plaza for May 1 after booking the venue nearly a year in advance, the outlet reported.Carney told the Post she learned about the closure from a friend rather than the hotel itself, leaving her worried about the money already paid for her wedding."I'm definitely frustrated and disappointed that this happened, and I'm anxious to figure out what the next steps will be," she told the outlet.CLICK HERE FOR MORE LIFESTYLE STORIESThe closure drew reactions from New Yorkers and travelers online, including some who immediately thought about the weddings affected."I feel sorry for all the weddings that had to [be] canceled," one Reddit user wrote.

Week seven of the college football season was everything fans love about the sport. Chaos. Rivalries, like Tennessee-Alabama and Auburn-Georgia. Upsets, with BYU taking down Notre Dame in front of an exuberant home crowd in Provo. And debate over what it all means for the rest of the year.Not one team ranked in the AP Top 25 poll in week six stayed in the same position in the week seven poll. Texas dropped 12 spots. Florida gained 12. Multiple other schools moved up or down at least six positions, with Missouri falling a whopping nine places after their blowout loss to Ole Miss.But no stat better exemplifies the chaos of week seven better than this one. Tom Fornelli from CBS Sports posted on X this week that, "The SEC is the first conference this century to have 5 AP Top-20 teams lose in the same week."WEEK 7 AP TOP 25 POLL FEATURES A COMPLETE SHUFFLE AFTER CHAOTIC WEEKEND, WITH MIAMI TAKING OVER THE TOP SPOTWe're just a few months away from completing our 26th year in this century, somehow, and the SEC was the first conference in that time frame to have five teams rankedin the top-20 lose in just one weekend. That's pretty remarkable. And it's also a sign of things to come.We've known for some time that the advent of NIL and the transfer portal would change college football. But it doesn't seem like we've come fully to grips with just how quickly that change would happen and how much of an impact it would have on the sport.The reasons for this, and the results from it, are obvious. In decades past, a say, four-star recruit might choose to commit to Nick Saban's Alabama, or Pete Carroll's USC, hoping to play for championships and reach the NFL. Then find themselves losing out on a starting role to an even more highly regarded five-star player. With little recourse, short of transferring to sit out an entire season, that player likely would stay put, wait their turn, and hope they get their chance on the field.Now though, many of those players don't pick Georgia, Alabama, or USC in the first place. NIL has allowed smaller programs to compete for recruits they'd previously have missed out on. They might not offer the same coaching or championship aspirations, but they can offer something more immediately valuable: money.It's the same with the transfer portal. Lose out on a starting job? Hit the portal, go start elsewhere. Suddenly that four-star backup for Alabama is now a starter at Auburn or Tennessee. Again, it's obvious, but this weekend's chaos shows the result of this new era in practice: the gaps between teams are smaller than they've ever been.And we have the data to prove it.ESPN's SP+ ranking system is an efficiency-driven rating that measures success on offense, defense, and special teams, adjusted for tempo and opposition. Essentially, trying to use the most sustainable and predictive parts of a team's resume to remove some of the randomness inherent in sports. These ratings generally track very closely to those used by sports books to set their lines. And sports books are the best in the business at ranking the best teams, because their livelihood depends on it.CLICK HERE FOR MORE OUTKICK SPORTS COVERAGEThus far in 2026, just a little over halfway through the season, there's a clear pattern: there's not nearly as much of a gap separating the top handful of teams from the back end of the top 25. And it's why we're seeing so many more upsets, with more likely coming the rest of the year.Ohio State is currently the number one team in the rating at 26.8, roughly corresponding to 27 points better than the median college football team, around the 70th best in the country, for example. Georgia is right behind at 26.5, then Miami at 25.3, Notre Dame at 24.8, and Indiana at 23.6.That's already very tightly bunched, but expanding it shows how close the margins are in college football this year. Utah, the No. 10 team in SP+, is rated at 19.4, just a touchdown behind OSU. Ole Miss, at No. 14, is 17.1, meaning they're less than a touchdown worse than Indiana. You can look all the way down to Kansas State at No. 25 and they're essentially one score worse than No. 9 BYU.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW!So how does this compare to the pre-portal era?Well, looking back at 2022, it's apparent how much, and how quickly, things have changed. The 2022 Georgia Bulldogs, in the post-bowl results, had a 37.3 rating. They were over 37 points better than the median team, compared to Ohio State's 26.8 points in 2026.Georgia's 37 rating was a whopping 23 points better than the No. 25 team in that year's rankings, Arkansas. Halfway through the 2026 season, the gap between No. 1 and No. 25 is just 13 points. Georgia was 18 points better than the No. 10 team, funnily enough also Utah, in 2022. Right now, the gap between OSU and Utah is seven points.SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTERThose are gigantic differences, and it's why the era of runaway dominance and multi-year dynasties seems to be at an end. Indiana's 2025 season was remarkable; running through an entire year undefeated in the portal, superconference, expanded playoff era is an incredible achievement. Even Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian said prior to the season that he believed those days were over in college football. Then Indiana went 16-0.But already, in just week seven, there is only one undefeated team remaining in the Big Ten and SEC, combined. And it's UCLA. Just as everyone expected.Alabama has two losses. Georgia lost at home. Texas has two losses and is lucky not to have a third. Indiana's winning streak was snapped. Oregon has two losses and remains unranked. LSU spent about $150 million to hire Lane Kiffin and revamp their roster, and lost twice in the first six games.The gaps between teams is small, and shrinking. Which is why there are more upsets and surprises than even the typically chaotic college football season usually provides. Oh, and Ohio State just lost their starting quarterback for "several weeks," ahead of games against USC and Oregon. And in a perfect example of how this new era works, instead of another experienced, highly-ranked recruit backing Julian Sayin up, they're turning to a three-star true freshman to replace him.That hypothetical backup? He's probably starting somewhere else.
A repeat offender accused of shooting a National Guard member in Washington, D.C., as troops tried to break up a street fight had previously been convicted of assaulting police officers and illegally carrying a gun, federal officials said.The U.S. Marshals Service on Monday identified Jerrell Jackson, 41, as the suspect in the shooting, which happened at about 11:15 p.m. Sunday in the 400 block of 8th Street SE.Jackson was previously convicted of two counts of assault of a police officer and one count of carrying a pistol without a license and had three parole violations, the agency said.NATIONAL GUARD MEMBER SHOT IN DC, POLICE CHIEF SAYSCourt records reviewed by Fox News Digital show Jackson has faced at least 13 prior criminal cases or arrests in the District dating back to 2004, involving allegations ranging from gun and drug offenses to assault, threats and unlawful entry.

A loss, no matter how you get there, counts the same in the record books. The reality, however, is that not all losses are created equal.Some are closer to the win column than others and some earn a big unexpected bonus due to a boob falling out and receiving camera time.The latter is how MMA fighter Lucero Acosta's PFL debut played out in Chicago on Friday night. The fight ended in a TKO loss to 9-1 Shannon Clark when the referee stepped in and stopped the fight.THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW!While the 32-year-old from Mexico did inflict some damage on her opponent during the fight, she was on the receiving end of a flurry of elbows that bounced her head off the canvas and at some point had one of her boobs pop out.Not all the angles of the end of the fight caught Acosta's slippage. This is one of the safe ones. The other angle, if you're really interested in that aspect of this fascinating story, can easily be found on social media.A tough loss by TKO in the record books for Acosta, who once went viral training underwater in a bikini, but a TKO loss unlike most TKO losses.As you would expect, the wardrobe malfunction that accompanied the third round stoppage also went viral. It then earned her that unexpected bonus.WWE STAR ADDS TO HER LEGACY WITH 'BUILT IN THE FRONT & STACKED IN THE BACK' EXPLANATION FOR LOCKER ROOM NUDITYIn a moment of preparation meeting opportunity, Acosta said in a post on Instagram that she's cashed in on the attention thanks to her OnlyFans."Extra payment on @onlyfans because we showed our nipples during the @pflmma live," she wrote. "It’s cute. Official sponsor."She then suggested that the "extra payment" might be as much as $500k.Not a bad bonus in a loss where, by the end, your head was being dribbled by the winner's elbows — if, indeed, it's anywhere even remotely close to that amount.The loss for Lucero Acosta, her first by TKO, dropped her professional record to 6-3. It also ended a four-fight win streak that ran from September 2022 to April 2025.I think we've learned something from all this. You win some, you lose some, and some losses turn into a win of sorts thanks to a wardrobe malfunction.
